Sunset Magazine cover, October, 2008.
This just arrived in the mail a few minutes ago, and I gotta admit, it is a really cool to have the cover of a magazine like Sunset!
We had two Zion images being considered as finalist for this cover, the other one was this image of Temple of Sinawava in Zion. That photo ended up being used as a full page in this months issue of Via Magazine – so now both photos are happy!
Here are more Zion National Park photos.

Thanks T!
Congratulations! You’ve been posting a lot of great material later. Expect more comments soon.
Congrats! That’s a great image and well worth the cover. It’s quite impressive looking at the depth of your stock imagery. Anytime you feel up to teaching a class on marketing, I’m game!
Congrats Ron. Looks great on the cover. I saw your other image in Via as well.
Congrats Ron! well deserved
Congratulations! I’m a Sunset subscriber, so I’m looking forward to this one!

Thanks Marc!
Yeah I remember you. Sounds like a great trip – you can’t beat Zion that time of year. We got there last year on October 23, and had wonderful colors on the higher elevations in the East side. From there, they continued to move down and fill the canyon with amazing colors.
Have fun,
Ron
Great shot Ron and congrats. Too bad they have to have all that distracting text. 🙂

LOL – thanks Mark!
Ron,
Wonderful photo. Imaging my surprise when I opened the mailbox after returning from a 4-day weekend in Zion and found your picture staring me in the face! I quickly got out my camera and said “wow” as I realized my last picture had the same scene as your cover shot. While mine does not have the beautiful Fall colors you captured, it may have a little more blue than yours. A great blue heron was along the river’s edge and had just caught a meal. I am now so looking foward to returning in Oct.

I have to agree with Carl. How could this pic NOT be a cover? Fantastic work, Ron & Janine. Congratulations!!

Hi Joe,
What a treat to have a Great Blue Heron in the same scene! You will really enjoy Zion in the fall, it is a perfect time of year for that area.
Thanks,
Ron
